Akropolis Meat Market has been a part of the Astoria
community for 40 years. The company began with an
immigrants dream far away in Greece, with Gus “Pop” Gatzonis. He was a butcher in Athens, Greece and came to
the United States in 1954 with dreams of owning his own
business, the American Dream. Naturally, Astoria was his
location of choice with its thriving Greek Community.
The tradition continued when John, Pop’s son, joined his
father’s business and continued the tradition, planting
deeper roots in the community and continuing to provide
customers with the same delicious products- prime
steaks, choice chops, juicy cage-free chickens, and
choice free-range lamb and much, much more!
John and Pop worked together for twenty years. Today,
Akropolis is still run by father and son, John and Pop’s
grandson, Gus, with three generations of Gatzonis’
serving you as community butchers. We invite you to
experience the highest quality meat products at
competitive prices coupled with old world service and
flavor that will have you coming back for more!
